This document discusses open data in Hong Kong. It notes that open data helps people understand the world and make better decisions. However, Hong Kong's open data program still has room for improvement, with data sometimes only available in non-machine readable formats like PDFs and JPGs, and licensing that is not fully open. The document advocates for fully open licensing of data, as well as policies like a Freedom of Information law and an Archives law to strengthen open data practices in Hong Kong.
The document discusses the need for internal data monitoring in public sector organizations. It outlines challenges like handling sensitive datasets and responding to information requests. An important component is a data catalogue to track what data the organization has, along with metrics to assess datasets for potential publication or reasons for non-publication. The OGD Cockpit tool is presented as a way to manage this process internally using semantic wikis before data is published externally through portals like CKAN. The document also notes plans to harvest the internal catalogue, manage information requests, and define metadata for public sector information.

Improving Policy Coherence and Accessibility through Semantic Web Technologie...Edward Curry
The complexity, volume and diversity of government policies and regulations raises significant burden on both the complying parties and government itself. On the one hand, businesses, civil organizations and other societal entities are required to simultaneously comply with and interpret different and possibly conflicting or inconsistent regulations. On the other hand, government as a whole must ensure policy and regulatory coherence across its various policy domains. While the recent wave of open government initiatives have led to significantly more public access to these documents, features allowing cross-referencing related documents and linking to less formal documents or comments on other media more understandable and accessible to the public are not common if at all available today. As a solution to this challenge, we propose an Open Government-wide Policy and Regulation Information Space consisting of documents that are “semantically” annotated and cross-linked to other documents in the information space as well as to external resources such as interpretations, comments and blogs on the social web.
Our approach is three-fold. First, we identify the requirements for the infrastructure. Second, we eloborate a Reference Architecture identifying the various elements needed within the infrastructure. Third, we show how such infrastructure may be realised as a linked data portal where policies and regulations are published as linked open data. Finally, we present a case study involving environmental policy and regulations; discuss the potential impact of such infrastructure on coherency and accessibility of policies and regulations and concludes with challenges associated with provisioning a linked open policy and regulatory information infrastructure.

Linked Open Data and Europeana: towards a Jewish Knowledge Grid base on Linked Data
Presentation at the conference Ink to Cloud the European Correspondence of Jacob Burckhardt 9-12 April 2015 Il Palazzone Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa, Cortona IT entitled "Digital Content, VREs (Virtual Research Environments" and Communities of Practice by Dov Winer
Digitisation initiatives began due to long term preservation concerns. Questions concerning their impact have now come to the fore: “The measurable outcomes arising from the existence of a digital resource that demonstrate a change in the life or life opportunities of the community for which the resource is intended.” Jewish and Israeli digital resources can now be enhanced with relevant encyclopedias and controlled vocabularies through a LOD approach. The resulting knowledge grid can help bridge the gap between the digital resources and the knowledge of the intended communities of users. It will expand their application in narratives, scholarly research, higher education, K12, cultural tourism, genealogy and more.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
This talk will cover ScyllaDB Architecture from the cluster-level view and zoom in on data distribution and internal node architecture. In the process, we will learn the secret sauce used to get ScyllaDB's high availability and superior performance. We will also touch on the upcoming changes to ScyllaDB architecture, moving to strongly consistent metadata and tablets.
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
